Day 16 - Heading Home

Woke up this morning and it was raining. ..ugh!  Did Manjimup forget it is summer? 

No point rushing out of bed, I didn't want to ride in the rain and according to the weather app, it was easing around 10am.



So we had a coffee and some muesli and chatted to the grey nomads and waited for the tent to dry,  before heading off. 

According to Google maps it would be mostly down hill and the 36kms should take us 1hr 46mins. I had no way of telling it we were unfit fatties. 

After about 8kms of powering along we had a short stop for a drink and minor maintenance. 

Of we went and stopped again at about 16kms, in a roadside stop. I was really disappointed at the rubbish strewn everywhere. Come on people, look after our amazing country. 

We stopped again in Yornup, 13kms from Bridgetown and applied some RID. Lots of livestock around so their little black buddies were super annoying. 

Up one last hill and it is down hill into the caravan park. ...woo hoo.

A nice little cabin overlooking the river for a rest day tomorrow. ...


Unpacked the bike, sorted the dirty washing, and found a little stow away. The little yellow cat  (Kitty) has been photo bombing our journey and is in many of our photos. 

Now go back and find Kitty. ...ha ha ha . She has sustained an injury and will need a small repair when we get home. She is well traveled and comes from Singapore. She is a perpetual stow-away.

Thanks to Julie and Jon for coming and picking us up and letting us use their washer and dryer and for cooking us dinner. 

Bridgetown is always so nice.
